[Joe Chidzik] Somewhat relevant: Dragon Naturally Speaking also has problems navigating pages with large amounts of links (>200). Some info at http://webaim.org/blog/at-experiment-dragon/  Also sighted keyboard users would find the page somewhat cumbersome to navigate with that many links. Perhaps useful if you're feeding back on which user's may have difficulty navigating the page. 

I'm not aware of a limit on the number of links in a page though.
